RE: Trying to make Haworthia hybrids
Good luck! :D
This is so much fun! I crossed once two Streptocarpuses and got a bunch of seeds. And yea - every single flower that grew is different :) The good thing with them that it took just a few months from sowing to blooming. It was fun, bot not gonna do it again anytime soon. They take quite a bit of space.
Now I sowed a bunch of cacti and waiting to see them sprout :)
Will take also at least 2 years to get them to a good size. Did you sow yours yet?
It's still too cold, I think? I read that cacti germinate if temperatures are between 15-25C. We are still at 2-15 right now. I will try next month. I'm dying to see your cacti, why don't you make a post on how you did it?
Oh yea... I didn't think of your temperatures. Better wait and give them minimum 20C.
I was thinking of it... but then I got to sow.. and sow and I was in trance and forgot about the camera :p There is nothing there yet... just empty pots :)
I will take some photos of the little ones when it's safe to open them from their "incubators" and will write then.
It sounds like you had fun, though. I look forward to the progress pictures

I'm a bot. I detect haiku.
Lots of fun and back pain :p
If they all grow (and stay sprouted like crazy)... I dunno where I am gonna put all the pots :o
